Original logbook of the Albatross covering station numbers D2421-D2472 and H721-H777, recorded 3 June to 4 July 1885. Data recorded include station number (no.), date, machine, turns, correction, depth, shot or lead, bottom, bottom temperature, number of thermometer, correction, corrected temperature, air temperature, surface temperature, drift, trawl or dredge, sounding wire readings, dredge rope readings, serial temperatures, and general remarks. Remarks sometimes record types of specimens caught. Localities are not listed in this volume, but the ship was probably traveling along the east coast United States (based on the history of the ship's activities)
